• Partner with Product and Engineering leaders to align customer commitments with product roadmaps, technical feasibility, and organizational capacity.

• Manage customer expectations while maintaining strong relationships and a high standard of professionalism.

• Monitor project financial performance and ensure programs are delivered on time, within budget, and in accordance with contractual commitments.

• Drive accountability across internal and external teams without relying solely on direct reporting authority.

• Capture lessons learned and continuously improve Field AI’s enterprise program-management practices, tools, and processes.

• Support the expansion of successful customer programs from initial deployments into broader enterprise-scale adoption.

• 10+ years of project or program management experience, including significant responsibility for large, complex, customer-facing technology programs.

• Experience working at a technology company, preferably in enterprise software, robotics, artificial intelligence, industrial technology, automation, or another technically complex environment.

• Proven ability to engage and influence executive-level customer stakeholders.

• Experience coordinating technical delivery teams and providing leadership to project managers or other cross-functional workstream owners.

• Strong understanding of product-development and technology-delivery lifecycles.

• Exceptional written, verbal, and presentation skills, with the ability to communicate complex information clearly and concisely.

• Strong financial and commercial judgment, including experience managing program budgets, scope changes, and contractual deliverables.

• Excellent organizational skills and the ability to bring structure, clarity, and accountability to ambiguous or rapidly evolving situations.

• Professional presence, sound judgment, and a customer-oriented mindset.

• Ability to influence and drive results across teams without direct authority.

• Bachelor’s degree in business, engineering, computer science, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.

• Customer executives have confidence in Field AI’s plans, communication, and ability to deliver.

• Technical Project Managers and cross-functional teams operate from an aligned, integrated program plan.

• Risks and dependencies are surfaced early, decisions are made promptly, and issues are resolved before they affect critical commitments.

• Programs consistently meet their delivery, budget, quality, and customer-satisfaction goals.

• Successful deployments create a foundation for long-term customer relationships and enterprise-wide expansion.
